People rang in Christmas festivities with midnight masses and carol singing on the decked-up streets of Mumbai on Monday. The city police made elaborate security arrangements near churches to prevent untoward incidents as faithful and revellers took part in the celebrations, an official said. Midnight masses were held at major churches in the city, including Mount Mary Basilica in Bandra, St Michael’s Church in Mahim, St Thomas Cathedral and St Mary’s Church in Kalina among other churches. Carol singing began in the Christian pockets of south Mumbai and the western suburbs of Bandra and Mahim post 10 pm on Sunday.
